Went shopping again today to Morrisons at Reddish, a bit further than my local shop but worth the extra mile as Morrisons seem to be a better system as I found out last week.
Came home and finished off my dolphins,
This is how they looked before I started.
Then rubbed down and given a coat of Sand and sealer and the back given a coat of brass spray paint that was laying round the garage.
So then decided to give the front a bit of a different colour style from the old one and here you are, done in my box room workshop, with acrylic paints I had at home from when my wife Velda used to paint her garden ornaments.
A bit of a trial first.
Then carry on with more colours.
Then it was out into the garage again to give the front and back a coat of acrylic varnish luckkily had in stock.
Don't look bad do they!.
Them noticed that the other dolphins on the end wall of the garage were looking a bit flaky, so it was out with the sand paper again.
An assortment of colours again
So that was the garden sorted and a bit more colourful.
As the weather has been so good and no rain for weeks I bought this hose reel from Amazon as it was half price at £22.99 instead for £45.99 and I do love a bargain!.
Tried it out today watering the garden and when I went back indoors the cupboard under the sink unit was flooded, I found out it wasn't the hose reel unit at fault but the fitting on the tap under the sink had a perished O ring, luckily the hose reel set had a new fitting to replace the old one, at least the cupboard under the sink is clean now!.
This bit of information was on the back of the box, I bet you always wanted to know this.

Can't we go to the Vale yet Dad.
The pot one is nearly as big as Pepe!.
